Traveling.....Again

Part of my job involves traveling all over the state. Most times, its not so bad. And most of the time, my travel consists of day trips - I go there and come back in the same day. This is not the case this week. I went into the office yesterday, then worked for about 5 1/2 hours, then hit the road. I arrived at my destination 2 1/2 hours later --- but I changed time zones so according to the clock, it was 3 1/2 hours later.

My hotel isn't quite as nice as the ones I'm used to staying in. But it is clean, safe, and has a complimentary breakfast. My main issue is the bed. That has to be the most uncomfortable sleep I've ever had! I awoke this morning with a stiff neck and pain in my shoulders. So, here I am. Moving slow, a full day's work ahead of me, and a two and a half hour drive home to follow. And my neck and shoulders hurt!

Usually, I travel with kit full of all the basic necessities so I don't have to make unplanned and expensive stops at drugstores to get the basics. Unfortunately, the travel bottle of pain reliever (that I got FREE) is EMPTY! When did that happen? I have no clue. So, I'll be making a stop at the local drugstore to get a full price bottle of pain reliever. Sigh.
